Rocky Mountain Audio Fest 2014 Hot Product
Legacy Audio speakers are well known for their imposing
size and use of multiple drivers. The company's latest speaker, and new top of the line,
is the V (price not yet determined), which is a five-way design that uses dual 4"
ribbon tweeters, dual 6" upper-midrange drivers, dual 14" midrange/upper-bass
drivers, dual 12" woofers and. . .
. . .a rear-mounted 12" subwoofer mated to three
10" rear-mounted passive radiators. Each speaker's bass and subwoofer sections are
powered by 1400-watt internal ICEpower amps. The crossover frequencies, in case you are
curious, as we were, are 3kHz, 400Hz and 80Hz (the subwoofer section is presumably
separately adjustable).
Also part of the package is Legacy's Wavelet, a preamp
and crossover that provides time alignment and speaker-room correction along with a
digital-to-analog-conversion functionality. |
